Here is a picture before the joints were tapered and wrapped. On one call the webbing inside the end of the bone was cleaned out and the other was left in. Both sound the same and the webbing doesn't lessen the volume, it is just for looks. The bones were cleaned out by Cole and his beetles at CMC Skulworks so there is no leftover meat or marrow inside the webbing and bones.

You use the call by kissing the end of the of the call with the cork lip stopper while inhaling slightly.

Which sights to put on new shotgun? Factory ones shoot high!
Little Creek Calls replied to Viper's topic in Turkeys!
I have tried several other fiber optic sights including truglo and others and this one by Hi-VIS is the best. Its fully adjustable allowing you to sight in your shotgun and center your aiming point. Also they have great customer service, if you break your sights give them a call or send them an email and they will send you replacement parts free of charge. You can get them locally at Sportsman's, Bass Pro or Cabelas for around the same price as the link below from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000V2HCI/ref=s9_al_bw_g200_i1 -
Advice Needed on a Youth 20 Gauge Turkey Setup
Little Creek Calls replied to rossislider's topic in Youth Hunters
I know NOTHING about turkey hunting, but do you really aim for the head? No you aim for the neck just below the head. If you miss high you hit the head, if you miss low you hit where the neck joins the body. Either way you have a dead turkey on impact. If you aim for the body you will ruin your meat and most likely the bird will run and you will not find your dead turkey. -
Yea it is going to be fun. Bought my license online last week and will be headed up Tuesday after work for the opener on Wednesday.

Turkey Hunting and Calling Seminar 4/9 6PM at Mesa Sportsman's
Little Creek Calls posted a topic in Turkeys!
I will be doing a few more turkey hunting and turkey calling seminars again this spring. For those who haven’t attended my seminars in the past there will be general turkey hunting tips and strategies. There will also be breakout trainings with hands on call use training with box calls, pot calls (slate, aluminum, copper, glass and crystal), and mouth calls. Each person in attendance will get instruction and training and get to use and practice with several types of calls. All calls will be supplied by me for the training. Calls will be available for purchase after the training. There will also be a question and answer time so if you have any questions or are looking for help in a particular unit there will be several experienced turkey hunters willing to help. These will be free of charge with no registration required, just show up the day of the seminar. Saturday March 21st 2015, 10:00 AM – 11:30AM at the St George, Utah Sportsman’s Warehouse. Thursday April 9th 2015, 6:00PM – 8PM at the Mesa, Arizona Sportsman’s Warehouse. I might also be doing a shorter 1 hour seminar at Cabelas in Glendale mid-March. I will post details as they become available. I really enjoy teaching these seminars and helping others improve there turkey hunting and calling skills. I look forward to meeting some of you there. -
In the last 20 years there have been a lot of study's done and what they have shown is that you are getting maximum velocity out of your turkey shot at around 20 inches of barrel. In fact if you are looking for a shotgun that is made and sold specifically for turkey you will find that the Remington Browning Mossburg Winchester and others are all making their turkey editions mostly in 24" and a few in 22" barrels. I shot and carried a heavy 28" barrel for years but changed to a newer 24" turkey edition 7 or 8 years ago. My pattern results actually improved and I enjoy carrying and swinging the lighter gun much better. Also if you are struggling to get a good pattern I would defiantly shoot #5 or #6 shot to get more shot on target. If it is mass you are concerned with at the farther ranges then use one of the heavier tungsten blends.

A quick reminder for my last Seminar of the season next Thursday April 9th 2015, 6:00PM – 8PM at the Mesa Sportsman’s Warehouse. -
If you are under 18 you can. There is also an over the counter archery tag for adults but it starts a month later in mid May.

The state chapter president Steve Sams will be at the game and fish expo and I am sure he will have tickets for sale. I will be there as well at the NWTF booth on Saturday so if you find me I will get you in touch with someone with tickets. The winner is normally drawn at the Sierra Vista NWTF Banquet witch is Saturday August 1st, you do not need to present to win but I think they call the winner when they are drawn from the Banquet.

I wish I was going hunting turkey already. April 15th can't get here soon enough. Have a great trip Bill, look forward to hearing about your hunt when you get back.

If your son drew a designated youth hunt the charge would only be $50 ($63-$13 app fee). It should be a regular season tag if the charge is $135.
-
It would not have been our year either but my dad is getting older and wanted to hunt so I found the best unit that we could make the bonus pass on. If we would have put in for our normal choices we would have been waiting another 5+ years for the bonus pass.
-
After 20+ years of waiting finally $180 pending charge. My dad and I are going Antelope hunting. I was pretty sure we would make the bonus pass for the unit we put in for but you never know.

Turkey Hunting and Calling Seminar 4/9 6PM at Mesa Sportsman's
Little Creek Calls replied to Little Creek Calls's topic in Turkeys!
I looked into doing a seminar in Tucson a few years ago. I found out that the local Southern Arizona chapter of the NWTF puts on a seminar at the Tucson Sportsman’s each year. I have some good friends from that chapter and it should be a great seminar. I will check the dates and try to attend, I always enjoy learning something new and seeing different methods of teaching and presenting on turkey hunting. Next year when scheduling my Mesa Seminar I will request a Saturday to accommodate those who want to attend from out of town. -
New Call For National Call Making Contest
Little Creek Calls replied to Little Creek Calls's topic in Turkeys!
I went to the NWTF convention in 2012 my first time competing in the call making contest. I had a great time at the convention and in Nashville. I want to go back each year but it hasn't worked out. As far as how I did the only thing I know is I didn't win. I got a letter in the mail the other day thanking me for participating and it said there were 970 calls entered this year. Anyways yes I do sell strikers individually. I will bring a bunch when I come next month. I look forward to meeting you and hearing a few more of your hunting stories and seeing some of your trophy's. -
I just finished up and sent out the call that is headed for the annual national call making contest at the NWTF convention. It is a mesquite call with glass soundboard and Crystal calling surface. The striker has a mesquite head with rosewood dowel.
